I installed VPC on a 2GB laptop, and the VHD has Windows XP Pro and Office
2007. It's not remarkably slower than Office 2007 running normally on
another older laptop. And it makes checking things in 2007 easier, just fire
up the VPC, and save its state when I finish.

I installed VPC a few months ago and installed winxp pro on a virtual disk.
I
installed xl2007 on that VHD. But the bad news is I only had 1GB on my
pc. So
I used 512MB for the real pc and 512 for the VPC.
I would start winxp pro on the VPC and it was just excruciatingly slow.
Last week, I upgraded to 3GB and I allocate 1.5GB for the VPC and it seems
to be
responsive enough to actually use!
But I still have to load VPC to get to office 2007 (and I don't always do
that).
ps. The extra 2GB cost about 45USD from newegg.com. I used Crucial.com
to find
what kind of memory I needed and then looked for cheaper <vbg prices.

When did you bite the bullet?
My Office Ultimate 2007 is still sitting in its plastic envelope.

Sorry, I don't know enough about xl2007 to help.

Okay,
I went back through my install and checked to see if I missed anything
and I
didn't see anything related save as filters or anything that might
have
caused me not to get this during my install.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks - JackRazz

Dave, All I have in my 'Save as type' is
*.xlsx
*.xlsm
*.xlsb
*.xls
*.xml
*.mht
So I must be missing something. Could I have missed it in my
install?
Thanks - JackRazz

When you do a saveas, don't you see options in the "save as type"

Hey everyone,
I'm trying to create a file for my global macros and would like
to use an
Add-in instead of the more classic Personal.xlsm method. I don't
see how to
save a worksheet with my macros as an addin or xlam file. How do
I do this?
Also where is the save as cvs file format?
Thanks - JackRazz
